This brings to mind another thought. Depending on the exact position
adopted, the plates of stegosaurs may have been a hinderance.
Porcupines have muscular control of their spines, allowing them to
flatten them to anable mating to take place. Could mobile stegosaur
plates, as has been suggested previously, have solved this problem?
(This is a rather unorthodox subject, granted, but at least it has
stimulated quite a response [no pun intended].)
